MUSIC REVIEWS FOR BULLITZ 23

 The exuberant second EP by Bullitz 23 continues in a similar  vein to their debut. Punk and Celtic influences fuse with a touch of  soul and a Motown back beat in songs penned by former Ex-Cathedra and  Suicide Bid front man Andi Chalmers. 

 If there’s one thing Bullitz 23  knows how to do, it’s to grab you by the collar and thrust you into the  heart of a punk rock maelstrom. Their latest offering, the Burn EP, is a thrilling three-track blitz that refuses to let up, punctuated  by a bonus demo of the title track featuring the legendary Gizz Butt.  This EP doesn’t just command your attention; it demands it with a raw,  unfiltered, and infectious energy. 

 Here it comes!!!  The latest EP by Bullitz 23 that is. This is the second instalment after the 2023 ‘Ballad Of Jim Bones’ barn  stormed our world. Do you like a little Punk Rock, do you crave some  Celtic Folk, is it melodic gnarly wonderfulness that gives you goose  bumps when you hear it, and has you wishing this was a Scottish Cèilidh  with a difference, well here we go….. 

Exploding onto the scene last year, on the 5th November (No  coincidence it being Bonfire night here in the UK) with their limited  edition debut Green 7” vinyl single ‘Ballad of Jim Bones‘ which was hailed as “Single of the Week” by Louder than War, featured in Vive le Rock magazine and played on Punk Rock radio stations worldwide, Bullitz 23 have made their mark upon the punk world.

Think Stiff Little Fingers,  Skids, and Cock Sparrer with a hint of Sham 69 in the street smart lyrics. Title track ‘Burn‘  is tinged with the sound of Ska-Punk, complete with horns, crashing  guitars and lyrics that make you want to get up and do something to  still feel alive!

Short and to the point, Burn lives up to its name with its high-energy, explosive sound.  This frenzied EP delivers an engaging experience from start to finish.

Bullitz 23’s debut EP is a solid, no-frills release that perfectly  captures the rebellious spirit of punk music. It’s an enjoyable record  that stays true to its roots, offering both great melodies for singing  along and raw energy for those who want to immerse themselves in its  untamed sound. With Bullitz 23, you’re guaranteed a great time.
